Hi Everybody!
Lately I have been getting better in the kitchen coming up with 20-25 minute meals. I am at whiz at breakfast with my famous morning potatoes dictating when the rest of the meal will be done. In this case it is the fire-roasted tomatoes. They do take an hour to make in the oven but the rest of the meal is less than 20 minutes! And, well worth it!
Fast and delicious meals are the norm here especially during football season...I try to limit the pizza intake and the "football-type" food and stick with nourishing meals. So 20-25 minute meals are my favorites! Enjoy the season!
